It resonated with people, and the YouTube video has since been viewed over 6 million times. City Girl, a project by a musician who prefers to go unidentified, explores the idea of being in a city, alone, among big groups of people. In this way, lo-fi has turned what was a river into an ocean. Like In Love With A Ghost, City Girl relies on a basic premise and then allows listeners to add meaning or sense to their tracks from there. City Girl does, in a way, see themselves as part of the lo-fi scene but thinks that music is far more complex than the limitations of what has become an internet meme.
